Spain rebuffed Washington's appeal to refuse military sales to Venezuela, saying Friday it will sell the South American nation military boats and jets.
The United States has refused to grant a re-export license for the U.S. components of the Spanish aircraft and patrol boats that make up a proposed $2 billion deal, the Financial Times reported. In addition, the United States has asked Spain not to supply Caracas with arms.
But late Friday Spanish state radio quoted Defense Ministry sources in Madrid as saying the big military deal would go ahead and substitute technology would come from European sources.
Looks like a target drone LOL. Seriously a trainer. But still anthing short of another F-22 is going to be no match for us ;)
We are not at war with them now. But he is a guy we should keep a close eye on. Right now he is Castro the Lite version. But he has been getting rather cozy with China and Russia.
Exactly.
I agree we need to stay focused on Castro,Chavez, and now Bolivian coke lord Morales.

By the way that looks like one of the remote control planes I used to chase dogs and cats with as a kid. :D
Exactly. Watch and be prepared to deal with the problems before they become problems.
Yes, but the brokeback image was totally uncalled for!
Just ignore anyone who tries to flame you.
Here to help.
FYI. Even if you don't ping me when you flame me, I can still see your post.
I agree.
And Ostrich Boy, your flame was uncalled for. What did he do to you?
but I guess ostrich humper was a semi-flame... I retract that description!
I concede that my terse attitude may have been uncalled for as a response to operation clinton cleanup's original #27, in itself
However in the light of the subsequent posts where he and another poster made ill-informed speculation on the details, decideded the anything the Spanish made would be crap anyway, and whatever it was, the manly us of A could and should blow them away - there comes a point where "You haven't a clue" is justified.
It's a tinpot dictator buying a dozen light tarnsports/patrol aircraft - end of story.
It's just the socialist, anti-American government of Spain supporting the socialist, anti-American and soon to be Stalinist government of Venezuela.
You should have posted that in the first place, thus not revealing your animosity towards the "manly us of A".
No animosity. just the observation that there is too much bluster on this thread.
OK not really by you. I should have recognised you were led astray by bad company and posted my original to someone else.
That is the nature of FreeReepblic... Public discourse is not pretty or factual, but sure beats no information at all. It's up to the end user to decide what is important.
